You Know You’re in Haiti When Your Kneecaps Sweat…

The recent SeaCoast church team posted this blog which we thought was pretty funny!  Enjoy!

You know your in Haiti when…
when you are at the airport and they offer to take your bag and they don’t mean to your car…
when you have names for the geckos in your room
when on a two lane highway the passing lane is in the middle
when you think you have a tan…until you get in the shower
when your sweat has deja’vu
when you look to the right and see the ocean and to the left and see the mountains

when the missionaries dream mode of transportation is a donkey

 

BUT Most of all, you know you are in Haiti when you give out love and what you receive back is 100 fold!
